Montgomery said he has been working on the brewery since May 2017. He hopes to begin brewing in November, but has not yet set the official opening date for There Does Not Exist in case of unanticipated delays.

Montgomery, who previously made video and motion graphics, began home brewing as a hobby. After meeting Matt Brynildson, brewmaster at Firestone Walker Brewing Co. in Paso Robles, Montgomery said he decided to go to brewing school.

Montgomery went on to work at Firestone Walker for nearly five years before deciding to open There Does Not Exist.
